Gute Lage, aber keine 5*
Pros:

Das Hotel hat eine Top Lage direkt in der Bucht, mit Blick auf den Hafen von Puerto Ayora.
Das Personal ist sehr aufmerksam und freundlich, bemüht sich, auch zu improvisieren, wenn nicht alles klappt.

Cons:

Das Hotel ist kein 5*, würde dies eher als 3*+ bezeichnen. Fast täglich waren Stromausfälle. Es gibt keinen Pool, keine Liegestühle, das Restaurant wird von einer Drittfirma betrieben. Das Essen war teilweise sehr gut, an anderen Tagen, naja... Alles ist gut gepflegt, aber doch schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen.

Pros:

Pequeno almoço simples, com Menu, mas muito agradável. Para quem está à espera de um pequeno almoço com buffet e muitas opções, não existe. Quarto simples, mas confortável. Extrema simpatia de todos os empregados. Vista e proximidade de tudo (embora apenas de barco que leva 4 a 5 min)

Cons:

Wi-Fi extremamente fraco e com bastantes interrupções. Barulho no quarto proveniente de pisos superiores e restaurante. Limitação para deslocar a pé.

Lovely hotel with friendly staff
Pros:

Had a lovely few nights at the Angermeyer Waterfront Inn. You can only get to this hotel by water taxi from the port but it only costs $1 and takes a few minutes which adds to the fun and adventure of it all. The staff were attentive and friendly and we enjoyed a beautiful breakfast that you order al la carte. The room was large and clean with a king bed that was very comfortable. Our room was on the main level but it had a nice view of the water and a little patio to sit on. This is a beautiful hotel and I highly recommend it during your stay on Santa Cruz.

Watee tank station
Pros:

Location was so good. Next to see and view was great. Also breakfast was good

Cons:

Next to my room (Gecko) is a water pump station. It kept working and making noise constantly. So it was challenging to sleep at night. Poor sound insulation.
